Disturbed - Down With The Sickness - A must watch.

[@ursathrope2968]

Yes it is but from personal experience I always advise listening to both versions because a lot of people I know don't like the unedited version even though it's the one I prefer

[@amystreet5402]

@@ursathrope2968 Yes I agree the unedited can be shocking

[@andyv2209]

@@amystreet5402 yeah the edited one is more popular too, always on the radio, its good for the first listen.

[@amystreet5402]

@@andyv2209 What radio station plays the unedited version?? I feel like people ask for a reactor to react to the unedited version for their own shock value, I mean he isn't even singing at that point so that doesn't add anything to his amazing range and it can be triggering and traumatic to some people. Every one should really stop and think how those few spoken lines could drag up post trauma (unintentionally)

[@andyv2209]

@@amystreet5402 i think you read my comment wrong, i was agreeing with you and saying the edited version is the one played on the radio, not the unedited.

[@Leftylobber]

I met David Draiman when he yanked me by the collar in a crowd and the band signed my 10000 Fists album. He gave me a giant hug, stared me straight in the eye and took the time to love and appreciate me as a fan. Forever my hero

[@deanabennett8461]

Well.I'm jealous

[@poesenpai6475]

You lucky sob i would kill for something like this to happen

[@aytoozee6759]

You post this on every Stricken reaction haha. Cool story tho.

[@hollyp6395]

Watching this and the Sound of Silence shows just how versatile his voice his.

[@nicholasgorton4495]

This one will hit you with his voice

[@tommccarthy3279]

Best cover song of all time, right a heard of Johnny Cash Hurt

[@calibadgerdude6082]

I’ve always seen this as a song about co-dependence. Despite how poorly she treats him, he loves her, he hates her, he can’t live without her. He knows that the relationship is destructive, but he can’t bring himself to get away. David Draiman is one of the best male vocalists alive. Dude’s got a voice like a Lamborghini V12 engine. In softer, more civilized moments, it’s a soothing rumble, immense power under restraint. Then he hits the throttle and it’s like all hell breaks loose with a roaring howl of power that’s both terrifying and entrancing. A lot of the music he writes is very introspective and deals with difficult mental health issues or other serious matters in the world today, and he can put so much emotion into his singing that he often brings me to tears. A true artist.

[@MikeKilo1969]

A la Joan Jett “I hate myself for loving you’.

[@4everhealthwellness344]

Yes it's about toxic relationships

[@sumonjamal1653]

Disturbed - "Inside the fire" ... awesome song! But a dark premise. David Draiman (vocals) wrote it about an ex-gf who took her own life...

[@DianaJG8]

You MUST do "Sound of Silence". You'll be amazed! His grandfather is a Jewish cantor - the family thought he might be at one time, too.

[@liviakelly5691]

Bobaflex does a better cover of Sound of Silence, you should check them out ☮️✌️

[@dawns.427]

Yes!!!

[@D0nut42]

...no...Disturbed's is the best version. Proof in the pudding? Paul Simon said it was better than his version,(the original,) and is the ONLY version Simon and Garfunkle have officially endorsed as worthy.

[@1jerryfarmer]

@@liviakelly5691 Nope

[@lisadannaker8063]

Awesome cover of Simon and Garfunkel!

[@stormy8207]

He did a cover of Simon and Garfunkel's Sounds of Silence. But would recommend watching the original first. Perhaps you could do them one after the other. It would be interesting

[@realamerican5813]

"Disturbed" is one of those bands that you're never sure what you're going to get!! Great song and reaction! ROCK ON!!

[@dannahtaft3108]

Oh my goodness...you have to hear him sing Sound of Silence!!! His voice is so awesome and versatile!!! Love and blessings from the great state of Texas! 💜🙏

[@sagittarian1955]

I love their cover of "The Sound of Silence" in the official video version.

[@raymondszymborski5468]

Thanks for doing Stricken, my all time fav from them, David Draiman is the vocalist. Check Down with the Sickness then Sound of Silence from them, you will be amazed it's the same band, great reaction.

[@CinShiba]

Their song "The Light" is an awesome song, and the video is epic.

[@harvesterofsorrow4096]

You have got to do the sound of silence by disturbed next it will blow your mind

[@dess8287]

Another song you should give a listen to is *Sound Of Silence* even though its a cover they do it so much justice. The singer's name is *David Draiman* and yes those are lip piercings. Some more song titles to peruse (check out) *Down With The Sickness, Stupify, Land Of Confusion* and *Prayer.* Love Peace and Happiness Y'all !!

[@johnsparks8083]

One of my favorite bands, and as a veteran my FAVE tune by them is "Indestructible". Please react to the official video with lyrics or you'll miss a lot of the meaning as its pretty dense lyrically. KEEP ROCKING OUT!!!!

[@darleneadams6844]

Love this band

[@lupe1808]

This is one of my top favorite disturbed songs . Such a great band !

[@paulathomas9621]

Please please react to Disturbeds official videos for Prayer, Inside the Fire, Stupify and Down with the Sickness!!!!! You won't be disappointed I promise!!! David is beyond amazing!!!

[@sumonjamal1653]

The importance of a great rock lead singer is that he has to deliver the feeling & passion in the vocals - Roger Daltrey (lead singer of The Who) doesn't write the lyrics, but he delivered the songs exactly how they were written. David Draiman of Disturbed is undeniable as a singer - delivers vocals w/ melody, precision & passion... His lyrics are dark, deep and cryptic... he had a chin piercing before, but he got rid of them a while ago😁

[@megdelany5688]

Please react to: Disturbed: -Down with the Sickness (unedited version) -The Sound of Silence (cover) -Stupify -Thanks!!!

[@amystreet5402]

I don't think the unedited is the best version to listen to first

[@timhiles5958]

Love your videos man.Disturbed is an awesome band. David Draiman has an amazing voice.You need to check out stupify an excellent song.Also sound of silence you will love them both.

[@markirby2122]

This vocalist is able to convey emotion so well. And man,you a metal head...its got you

[@kevinmathers2701]

There’s nothing wrong with opening your mind to other genres of music and Disturbed is a phenomenal band

[@charlesfitzgerald9631]

Love LOVE ! Dan Donegan’s guitar tone !....You always know a Disturbed song

[@sageofsquirrels111]

I'm very happy you didn't choose to react to their cover of "Sound of Silence" first. Most people start there these days, and while it's an impressive display of vocal range, it's even more amazing when you know them more for songs like this. Before you get to that one though, you should listen to some of their older tracks - in my humble opinion anyway. My first experience with Disturbed was back in 2002's "Down with the Sickness." Much like System of a Down it really had an energy that you couldn't ignore. Especially for those days when you need to deal with the demons in your head, you can just crank the volume and shout it out. \m/

[@HistorysRaven]

I watched someone who did start with Sound of Silence and it was an interesting experience. She had heard of the band but knew David best for the guttural yells of "Down with the Sickness" and the just sheer shock was amazing.

[@1134beerman]

Without a doubt their remake of the sound of silence is amazing and shows mr Draiman’s voice.

[@marcialavine1272]

I have loved Disturbed for well over 20 years- and rock/metal for 45 of my 55 years. Hard rock has always kept me interested and engaged musically, unlike other genres that I also listen to that wax and wane over time. It allows outlet for depth of feeling that other forms of music can't come close to. Dave Draiman, the singer for Disturbed, is one of the greatest (his piercings are called a double labret {pronounce "la- bray"} which are not in the lip itself, but the space between chin and lower lip). He was trained as a Jewish cantor in his youth, which is a form of classical vocal training that can be as involved and intense as opera. If you watch Disturbed's version of Sound of Silence, I highly suggest you watch the live version, from the Conan O'Brien show- the performance itself was a masterpiece. It was undoubtedly the greatest live performance I've ever witnessed by any artist or group in any genre. I think you might enjoy a trip down this rabbit hole, as their repertoire is expansive, since Disturbed has been actively performing for going on 3 decades, and while they stick to their core sound for the most part, there are some nifty curve balls thrown in, from time to time, and obvious personal interests that become a vocal point, such as suicide prevention and military support.

[@snakeskinnerkyle]

The most powerful singer of modern day. He's the Rob Halford of today

[@pwph8361]

haha that was so fun! great to see you rock out and to rock out with you :) :) as an introductory song to Disturbed yes that came on like a blood stained hurricane!!! Always loved this one. I am sure everyone will say this, if you want to hear the complete opposite of what these guys can do, check out Sounds of Silence :)

[@louiseodams9988]

Just got to get all their albums man and out your headphones on. I listen to all my music on headphones, you can hear everything, this band is full of emotion, I love them

[@mikeandjasonjones2317]

Their song titled The Light is also a great song to listen to and I feel their official music video for it does it the best justice.

[@susanlindner8626]

Disturbed puts on one hell of a show!! I got to shoot photos of one of their shows.... lots of pyro!! David Draiman the singer is a classically trained singer.

[@jayliger1]

This track came out back in 2005, when I was in high school, wondering, what the hell happened to Disturbed, and asking myself, are they still recording?. Then, after several hours past, I turn on MTV(I know right lol) and instantly, the advertisement for their album, Ten thousand fist appeared on my TV screen, with this song. You/y'all have NO idea of the raw energy I felt that day. Beyond epic. Beautiful reaction, my brother 🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾

[@sfrjenkins]

My friend you have found Disturbed. You will not be the same. Keep exploring this band.

[@zelgkopitar8799]

I'm not even a huge Disturbed fan but this song is so damn killer. Love it. The riffs. The vocals. Perfect tone/attitude.

[@harvesterofsorrow4096]

Love this song.

[@Star_R666]

I love Disturbed - their first album is my fave. You should check out their first songs Down With The Sickness, The Game, and my personal fave Violent Fetish. I love the arrangements of their songs and how he doesn't always sing on the normal beat - it also gets my aggression out when I need that outlet.

[@chrismule1062]

I hear you about shying away from hip hop. Hip hop is awesome. GR8 for a night out. But rock/metal just has this way of telling emotional stories. The instruments alone can make you feel certain emotions. Then you add the lyrics. CRAZY!!!!! There's a live, extended version of a TOOL song, that when i play it for people, they all say that the extended instrumental part either makes them almost cry or puts them in a phenomenally happy mood.

[@jayliger1]

8:12 Yep! Those were David Draiman's iconic chin piercings 🤘🏾

[@jon-pauldupont5746]

Long history of good music from this band. Good song choice for sure

[@kevinroeske8131]

Indestructible It’s really good too, probably my favorite disturbed song

[@jeanniemetiva6745]

Sound of Silence......it's amazing!! The video is awesome and so is the live version. Not many in my opinion do a song justice live but he does!!!

[@gatorhunter1]

"You come in like a blood-stained hurricane..." says it all right there.

[@meld5234]

I totally understand about how music can make you feel emotions from the artists. I see a lot of recommendations for their version of Sound of Silence and I do too but also react to the original by Simon and Garfunkel. Same song, both amazing, both beautiful but definitely makes you feel completely different when listening to them. There's another idea for videos, listen to an original then a cover and decide who was better...but then there can be a lot of arguments in the comments.

[@pugshorty9852]

Another great song by Disturbed is called The Game.

[@thegodofwine8228]

This dudes voice.....thats it, that is my comment...THIS DUDES VOICE. (2 more from them - "inside the fire" , "Vengeful one" - and Sound of Silence , the live from Conan Obrien show one)

[@calvinvogel4649]

I wish I could give you two likes on this one brother. Another great reaction! Keep up the good work.

[@Fairygrl_TW]

I love Disturbed, his Amazing ranges and unique awesome sound, now that you've her this style of his voice You MUST ck out "The Sound of Silence" Will blow your mind...Epic group...Thank you, such a great band...Peace J.

[@goatvoicestwin1859]

Next disturbed reactions : Inside the fire The night Are you ready A reason to fight Dont tell me (featuring Ann Wilson) The vengeful one The light 10 thousand fists Bad man I wont back down Pick and choose or all❤

[@4everhealthwellness344]

This song from what David Dramen said, is about being in an unhealthy relationship, having an obsessive attraction to someone

[@ShaneDeRossett]

You should really get some headphones... a computer's speakers just can't properly present rock how it should be absorbed. There's so many subtle undertones and such that you'll miss. Seriously, give it a try with headphones... It's so much better!

[@carmenalvarez626]

Ahhhh love them. Seen them twice in concert. They are awesome. Missing Amber. 🙄

[@jamesdrakes7444]

David Draimen's ability to tap into rage that he felt when his gf committed suicide is heard in this song & Inside the Fire. It's taken me 20 years since losing my son to be able use that anger in any kind of positive way. Disturbed's The Light has become my go-to when my issues (of which there are many lol) raise their ugly heads. You 2 are cool as hell so I'm I'm recommending this song even if you don't react to it to listen after a tough day. Musically Sound of Silence is a must-do change-your-life song. But The Light is something special too ... just in a different way.

[@jans4248]

Sound of Silence , Prayer , Down with the sickness and Indestructible are my favs , also Univited Guest is amazing as well.

[@Cassiea255]

Love Disturbed, especially their version of 'Sound of Silence'. I also love his dolphin bites.

[@jayliger1]

Yo, Jay! I got one word for you. YEEEAAAHHH!!!!!! 🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾

[@fishman421]

Another fun tune, from a different duet - Lita Ford & Ozzie Ozbourne "Close my Eyes Forever"

[@jc2004x]

This was later covered by Draiman in his other band (Device) with Lzzy Hale from Halestorm doing Lita's Part

[@unklebacon44]

He's trained and he unleashes. Can't not like that.

[@dannahtaft3108]

Oh another awesome song of his with great message...Hold on to the Memories 💜

[@chrismule1062]

I already knew you'd love this from hearing you say when it comes to rock, you like lead singers w/ more up tempo flows that resemble hip hop. And that's this dude Damian right here. Seen DISTURBED live once....sounds just as good as their studio recorded albums.

[@johnnygray9661]

I would definitely suggest a few of Disturbed's lesser known songs as well. Things like "The Game", "Droppin' Plates", "Never Again", and one of my personal favorites "Another Way to Die".

[@thecakecrusader4664]

Love the content! Try out reacting to: Florida Georgia Line - Cruise The Offspring - You are gunna go far kid Outkast - Hey Ya Escape the Fate - Not Good Enough for Truth in Cliche Bullet for my Valentine - Hearts Burst into Fire All of them are bops

[@dionshare7103]

Disturbed is another good rabbit hole.

[@Maalacharizard]

Disturbed. The light is a must, hold on to memories too, or Give me a reason to fight, those helped me through some very dark times...they are extremely good songs by them

[@DarkAngel1985Mike]

Like a bloodstained hurricane is one of my favorite lines because I feel it, I grew up in a house with only women so I saw a lot of bloodstained hurricanes

[@mikenastasi8927]

I've been watching you for like 2 years and I think this was my favorite reaction of yours.

[@brianjones5862]

Down With the Sickness is a must. It's probably one of their best

[@lialt1]

My favorite Rock band. We've seen them in concert 7 times and back in 2019 this was the first Rock concert I took my daughter too (she was 12). They are amazing live!

[@daveshoemaker9372]

Dave is a classically trained opera singer. Indestructible is a must hear.

[@brentcox7772]

🔥🤘

[@bowtiefidenine]

Thanks for that ❤ it has been a time since I’ve heard that song 😊😊

[@uhhyeah-ok1794]

Great video. Would love to see a reaction to MCR's Helena.

[@easy1045]

When you listen to their new stuff you can tell that singer is in the loop of what's going on in these crazy times

[@PabloRodriguez-gn1fs]

You NEED to do "DOWN WITH THE SICKNESS" the uncensored version....PLEEEEEEASE

[@mrichards2211]

❤️ first time hearing this song also. Of course I’ve heard Disturbed’s most popular.

[@dabegmister]

Disturbed is my number-one top favorite band ever since I was a kid when I first heard their song prayer I know that you have watched a couple of other songs from him and don't be afraid to keep digging through cuz he's got a lot of gold and stuff you can definitely hear the passion in his voice and that's why I love it

[@rayusdragon]

He has snake bite labret piercings. David Draiman is an absolute Legend. I've been listening to him since early teens. Sound of Silence like many suggested for the complete versatility of his voice. Inside the fire is another good one for the raising awareness it was meant to, Stupify, 10 thousand fists in the air. Another band worth checking out is Linkin Park's Numb, one step closer, crawling, My above all favorites from Linkin Park Castle of glass and new Divide. This is the genre I listen to all day every day. Linkin Park's lead singer Chester Bennington hit notes just like Disturbed's David Draiman and the lives they touch are forever changed. Chester may be gone but his Legend lives on.

[@christinec1928]

Sound of Silence is a must, but if you really want a treat, check out the duet version with Myles Kennedy (Live in Houston). Wow!

[@jenniferrafferty5905]

Like a lot of others have said, Sound of Silence is a MUST listen to. But would suggest the original from Simon and Garfunkel first. A back to back review would be awesome.

[@shaggyrogers1587]

PLEASE listen to Another Way to Die by Disturbed. It has such a deep meaning and my favorite song by far

[@Omega-D]

Please do The Sound Of Silence next! My 80 year old Mam died of cancer a year ago on the 29th May. She got to choose all her own music for her funeral and Disturbed's Sound of Silence was the very last song of the service. Her name was Daphne Wilkinson and she was always a Rock Chick at heart. The other songs she chose were : James - Sit Down Alice Cooper - School's Out Queen - Who Wants To Live Forever W.A.S.P - Forever Free It would be incredible if you could react to one of her favourite songs at such a symbolic and emotional time. I will cry but it will be worth it. Thank you!🕯

[@rickgilliland2066]

I am so glad to have stumbled onto your reaction channel, and as a fellow Okie, I would love to see you two react to Disturbed- A Reason To Fight- Live. The non-live version is great too, but the live version will probably be unlike anything you've reacted to before and could possibly save someone's life....literally. It also gives you another side of Disturbed...a very good side. God bless from Lawton.

disturbed -> remember. greetings from Brazil

[@Grymreefer]

hi jay , i love disturbed . david draimen has ridiculous range , listen to "sound of silence" which is a cover of simon & garfunkel's 70's hit

[@bargndigital8874]

His name is David Draiman, he is trained as a cantor. You have to do the Studio version of the song " SOUNDS OF SILENCE " the video is crazy and this song written I think in 1963 by Paul Simon is very deep, and applicable to today it is not just a song but an emotional experience.

[@schwarz9199]

Down with Sickness a must listen as well!!

[@joserobertoperezbenitez1609]

And this is the first guitar solo in one of his songs. and this song is from her third album.

[@blakerh]

Their remake of "Land of confusion" is a great one too.

[@FlashTrance]

Since everyone is recommending Sound of Silence, which is kinda off-brand from Disturbed's usual stuff... some of my favs that are more along the same lines as Stricken would be Stupify, Indestructible, Down with the Sickness, Prayer, and The Light.

[@valeriedebats5653]

I think the best song they ever did is the sound of silence...it is one you will listen to again and again!

[@nateaurand1601]

No lie, no cap. Rock and metal will blow your channel up! Need proof? I just subscribed to your channel because you reacted to a metal song

[@maryannprzybycien2013]

LOVE Disturbed! You have to check out their cover of "The Sound of Silence" and their song "The Light". You won't be disappointed!

[@ruthiewohlforth5464]

David Draiman...a voice to die for! A powerful yet soulful voice that can go from warm baritone to angelic tenor, from clear as a crystal to rasp/distortion/vocal fry and back on a dime, which is incredibly difficult to do and he makes it look so damn easy! He has a timbre in his voice that I've never heard before........just hauntingly beautiful and pure tonal properties to it! An awesome talent. Loved your reaction and your take on the performance Rob. Try "Deceiver", "The Night", "The Game", "Indestructible", "The Light", "Enough", "Violence Fetish" by Disturbed too. They're a bit heavy like "Stricken". If you want to really hear his versatility...watch one of their few ballads..."Sound of Silence" live on the Conan O'Brien show. Btw....he was sick for the performance too .....and still aced it imho!!

[@juliebarry7393]

Now... Down with the Sickness "oo ah ah ah!"

[@rainbowzebraunicornpegasus2962]

If you want music that gets you in the feels ,Disturbed will take you by Storm. They have a heavy metal band but also have some softer songs that will still reach into you and make you feel so much! Fall down the rabbit hole. Become a Disturbed One! Next try Voices or Stupify!

[@nicholasgorton4495]

My man. Listening to more rock and metal. If you want an awesome experience and meet the nicest people in the world you need to go to a metal concert.

[@chrisduncan7257]

Great song choice, amazing band, they will constantly blow your mind. As HollyP said do "sound of silence" next to see the range of what they can do. but I would also recommend "Inside the fire"

[@fitzeefreshvids1888]

Disturbed is so fun to listen to I have all the cds I’m suggesting song “the light” all their songs are thought provoking and most relatable. love the channel

[@chrismule1062]

I cannot fathom the situation that lead to the creation of lyrics in that one line: "You come on like a blood stained hurricane. Leave me alone, let me be this time."

[@sir-gwayne1644]

I got a challenge song for you. Gotta close your eyes, and listen on this one. El Paso, by Marty Robbins. It's a movie in your head
